Stitched Memory
The Memory Gallery

A private home for the photos the keepsake reminds you of

Every Stitched Memory keepsake has a small, invisible NFC tag sewn inside. Tap any phone against it and a private gallery opens — yours to fill with the photos, stories, and moments that go with the fabric.

No app. No subscription. Works on any phone, forever.

How the tap works

A tag, a tap, a gallery

The whole thing takes about five seconds the first time you hold the keepsake in one hand and your phone in the other.

Step 01

It's already inside

Every keepsake ships with a small NFC tag hand-sewn into an ear or corner. You can't see it. You can't feel it. It's there whether you use it or not.

Fill it with the story

Upload photos, add captions, drop pins on a map, invite family to contribute. Every tap after the first one opens the same gallery, growing over time.

What lives in your gallery

More than a photo album

Built for the way stories actually get told — in photos, in captions, in shared moments across the family.

📷
Included free

Photos with captions

Every photo can carry a caption — a date, a name, a story. Upload from your camera roll, snap something new, or let family contribute their own.

🗺️
Included free

A map of memories

Photos with GPS data drop automatically onto a map. See where a moment happened, cluster them by city, and watch a story spread across places.

🔗
Included free

Family share link

A private link lets invited family and friends add their own photos. You approve everything before it appears. No accounts required on their side.

📅
Included free

A timeline of the story

A chronological view that reads like a quiet timeline — year by year, milestone by milestone — built automatically from your photo dates.

📝
Heirloom & up

Stories alongside photos

Longer-form memories, anecdotes, recipe cards, or the note that came with the outfit — keep the words next to the pictures that go with them.

🎥
Heirloom & up

Short video clips

Attach short clips — a grandparent's laugh, a wedding toast, a child's first sentence — to any moment. Up to 30 seconds each on Heirloom, unlimited length on Legacy.

🎙️
Legacy only

Audio recordings

Voice notes, stories told aloud, a recipe read from memory. Keep the voice next to the photos it belongs with.

📦
Legacy only

Full gallery export

Download the entire gallery as a single archive — photos, captions, stories, and all — so it's never locked into one place.

Every keepsake includes the free Cherish gallery. Heirloom and Legacy features unlock with a one-time upgrade — at checkout, or any time after.

A note, if you're not sure

The keepsake is the keepsake —
the gallery is optional

Every Stitched Memory keepsake ships with the NFC tag sewn inside, whether you use it or not. The tag is a small, flexible sticker tucked inside a seam — you won't see it, feel it, or have to think about it.

Plenty of customers come to us for the handcrafted keepsake alone — the fabric, the stitching, the weight of it in their hands. If that's what you're here for, nothing about the NFC gallery changes your keepsake. It feels the same. It looks the same. It lasts the same. You simply never tap it, and the tag sits quiet inside the seam.

The gallery is there if you ever want it — a year from now, ten years from now, when a family member asks if they can add a photo. It won't go anywhere. It costs nothing to leave it unused.

Private and yours

How your gallery stays yours

Private by default

Your gallery isn't indexed, isn't listed, and isn't visible to anyone without the link or the physical keepsake in hand.

No subscription

One upfront price, at checkout or later — your gallery doesn't expire, doesn't lock behind a paywall, and doesn't bill you monthly.

Works on any phone

iPhone, Android, new, old — if it has NFC it opens the page. No app to install, no account to create, nothing to learn.

You own the photos

You can download them, export the whole gallery, or walk away at any time. We don't sell data, run ads, or train on your memories.

Three sizes of gallery

Pick how much room your story needs

Every keepsake includes a free Cherish gallery. Upgrade at checkout — or later, once you're ready — to a bigger tier with unlimited photos, video, audio, and more.
